METRIC COARSE TAP SET | MC BORDO

MC | METRIC COARSE TAP SET

About this item:

• Chrome Alloy Metric Coarse Hand Tap Sets designed for effective thread chasing and creation.
• Ideal for cleaning existing threads or forming new female threads in non-ferrous metals and plastics.
• Not suitable for precision, safety, or critical thread applications.
• Features a 60-degree metric coarse thread angle with a flat crest and clearance at the root for optimal engagement between external and internal threads.
• Larger root radius and lower thread height facilitate smooth screw thread processing and enhance thread strength.
• Thread dimensions are specified by simple numerical values, commonly measured in millimetres.
• Includes three types of taps for versatile use:
  • Bottoming Taps: Lead of two threads, ensuring minimal thread run-out when tapping to the bottom of blind holes.
  • Taper Taps: Lead of eight threads, perfect as starting taps in difficult or high precision holes.
  • Intermediate Taps: Lead of four threads, suitable for general purpose applications to cut true threads in pre-drilled pilot holes.
• Typically, Bottoming Taps are used following Taper or Intermediate Taps for complete thread formation.

These robust tap sets are engineered for durability and ease of use, making them an essential addition to any workshop or tool kit. Crafted from high-quality chrome alloy, they ensure reliable performance in various threading tasks involving metric coarse threads.
